Vintage Red & Black Glazed Ceramic Vase – Mid-Century Studio Pottery
A striking vintage ceramic vase featuring a bold, sculptural form with a rounded body and tall tapering neck. The vase is finished in a rich gloss glaze that transitions from vibrant red through warm amber tones into a deep charcoal-black neck, creating a dramatic gradient effect.
The glaze has a smooth, glassy surface with subtle tonal variation where the colours blend during firing, giving the piece a distinctive handcrafted character. The elegant silhouette and strong colour contrast make this vase particularly suited to mid-century, modern, or contemporary interiors.
Although purchased as part of a collection of European studio ceramics, the exact maker or origin of this vase is unknown. The style suggests mid-20th-century studio pottery, possibly European, where similar bold glaze effects and sculptural forms were popular.
This piece works beautifully as a standalone decorative object on a sideboard, shelf, or coffee table, where its striking colour and form can be appreciated.
